A rover is basically a remote-controlled vehicle used to access areas that are inaccessible by humans. NASA's Curiosity is a well-known rover robot. I decided to build my own simple rover using a Raspberry Pi board and a web camera. The USB webcam acts as the controller's eyes, which is typical of rovers (they are not autonomous). We can then control the movements of the robot using buttons on a locally hosted web page where the same video stream from the camera is embedded. I made the robot control more secure by making the Raspberry Pi a Wi-Fi access point. This means only users that know the Wi-Fi ID and password of the robot can view the video stream and control it.
